Why indeed.
I’m sad to say
that I let myself become so dependent on SQL Prompt as a top-of-the-line
developer tool, since it seems the direction being taken is for administrators,
rather than developers. I can tell you that line-for-line I write a thousand

defined and the code already standardized. The beauty of a tool like SQL Prompt
is for developers to quickly write nicely formatted code to solve problems
beyond the scope of database administration. It’s unfortunate to see that

I have SSMS 2008 R2 and updated my SQL Dev Bundle to version containing SQL Prompt 8 and SQL Search 2.4. Now neither of these tools is available in SSMS 2008.
